Build Your First AI Agent - A Working Session for Business Owners
About this Event
Leave with it running, not with notes.
A three-hour working session for business owners and operators. You leave with AI set up on YOUR business, your data connected, and one workflow running on a schedule.
The real gap isn't "using AI." A chatbot is where most owners start. And stop. The real payoff is further up: agents and workflows that do the work, save real hours every week, and add no new risk to your business. That's exactly what we build in this workshop.
Four gates. You clear every one before noon.
- A prompt framework that works. The four-part work order (context, task, format, example) practiced on a real task from your week, plus the two-question review habit that keeps you safe.
- AI set up on YOUR business. A workspace loaded with your business context: your services, your prices, your voice. Set up once, never re-explained.
- Your live business data, connected. Your real files, your calendar, or your books. "Who owes me money? What am I missing this week?" Answered in seconds. Three paths, so nobody gets stuck.
- One workflow running on a schedule. A named, reusable skill built from your own workflow, set to run on a standing schedule. It drafts, you approve. It runs Monday morning whether you remember it or not.
Plus two take-homes: a plain-English AI glossary (enough to decode any vendor pitch) and a one-page AI policy for your business, written in the room.
How the morning runs
8:30 — Doors open; optional setup clinic (we rescue installs and logins)
9:00 — The map, the promise, and your checklist
9:10 — Level 1: a briefing method that works every time
9:35 — Level 2: your business context, loaded
10:15 — Level 3: your live data, connected
10:45 — Level 4: your first scheduled workflow
11:25 — The safety rules + the vocabulary, earned
11:40 — A look up the ladder, and what's next
This is for you if you own or run a business and a chunk of your week disappears into email, paperwork, retyping, or chasing people; you've tried ChatGPT or Claude occasionally and suspect there's more; and you want the judgment to know what to automate, what not to, and what a fair price looks like.
It's not built for developers looking for a technical deep-dive, or anyone hoping AI will run their business unattended. We teach the opposite: it drafts, you decide.
Who's teaching. Praveen Rengaraj spent 20+ years building secure, compliance-grade software, including multi-million-dollar U.S. government systems, and now builds AI automation for small businesses. The whole morning is teaching; there's no pitch from the front of the room.
What to bring: a laptop and charger, your phone, and one process in your business that eats hours every week. A short setup guide (about 10 minutes of prep) arrives after you register.
The guarantee. Full refund through July 25, no questions asked. And on the day itself: if the workshop doesn't meet your learning expectations, tell me before you leave and I'll refund every dollar on the spot. All the risk is on me.
